IDENTIFICATION: We consulted descriptions and measurements of Vampyressa thyone provided by Goodwin (1963) , Ceballos Bendezú (1968) , Anderson (1997) , Lim et al. (2003) , and Tavares et al. (2014) . No subspecies are currently recognized in V. thyone ( Arroyo-Cabrales, 2008b ) . Our Mayo River basin specimens exhibit the diagnostic characteristics of the species: small size (FA < 34 mm ; GLS < 19 mm ); facial stripes weak and dorsal stripe lacking; uropatagium narrow and sparsely haired; rostrum shorter than braincase; hard palate extends well behind the molars; upper inner incisors long, separated basally and converging at the bifid tips; first upper premolar smaller than the second; first lower premolar caniniform and smaller than the second premolar (Arroyo- Cabrales, 2008b). Measurements of our specimens fall within the range of measurements reported for the species.
